Our Stores

Located on Main Street in Weston, across from the Village Green, our store invites you to step back in time and enjoy a leisurely stroll down Memory Lane. Wander our aisles, stocked to the rafters with penny candy, Vermont maple syrup, award-winning Vermont cheeses from many of our neighboring farmsteads, personal care remedies, household problem solvers, and so much more. Be sure to sample some of the many cheeses, crackers and dips available in our food section.

Plan to make a day of it by visiting The Bryant House Restaurant for lunch or dinner, located right next door. Afterward, don’t jump right back into your car. Stretch your legs a spell with a short walk to the Bryant House Garden, and then meander on the self-guided Nature Trail. The stops along the trail show interesting features about the history of the land and its natural features. You may even see a bunny or deer.

Our Rockingham store, located just off Interstate 91 on Route 103, is stocked to the rafters with kitchen gadgets, tried-and-true personal care items and remedies, household problem solvers, plus a wide variety of locally-made award-winning Vermont cheeses, penny candy favorites, our Vermont maple syrup products, and hundreds more items that will bring back fond memories. And if you’re tummy is still hungry after sampling the many cheeses, crackers, dips and cookies we provide, you can grab a wholesome bite to eat at Mildred’s Dairy Bar, located just outside the store.

On the grounds, take a stroll with someone you love through our Kissing Bridge; you’ll quickly learn how it earned its name! Visit our Grist Mill Museum and see the hand-made equipment once used to harness the power of water. There’s something fun, interesting and memorable for everyone in your family.
